Giving away copies of your book or ebook can be a powerful way to reach new readers who otherwise wouldn’t know about your book. Free book campaigns can lead to a variety of benefits including:

• Add book reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. While we cannot require participants to write reviews because this violates Amazon’s terms, we do let them know the best way to show appreciation for an author is by writing a review on Amazon or Goodreads.
• Improve word of mouth marketing because when readers enjoy a book, they want to tell others.
• Gain visibility for your book through exposure to potential new readers, which can inspire more sales.
• Sell more paperbacks, hardcovers, and audiobooks. A free or discounted download of your book can lead to sales of your print books or audiobooks since readers often purchase more than one edition of a book.
• Grow your author platform. Readers who discover your book may visit your website, sign up for your emails and follow you on social media.
• Increase sales for other books you have authored. When readers enjoy a book, they often look for additional books by the author.

Authors have been conducting free book giveaways for many years. These promotions are typically held during a new book launch to generate as much buzz as possible, or after sales for a book have slowed with a goal to revive interest in a book.

All kinds of retailers put products on sale at discounted prices for a limited time—because discounts create interest and can increase sales. When you discount your ebook to $3.99 or less and we promote it for you, new readers recognize it’s a limited offer. Those who are interested in your subject matter can be inspired to make the inexpensive purchase because they know the sale is only available for a limited time. Plus, you collect all revenue generated from these promotions through your Amazon KDP account, which can cover some or all the cost of the promotion campaign and my even net a profit.

The number of downloads is impossible to predict because readers have different interests and tastes. To ensure the best possible results, make sure you have an eye-catching and professional book cover, a clear and compelling book title, and an enticing book description that captures the interest of readers. We expect every book will receive a minimum of 30 downloads, and some will receive hundreds of downloads.

We cannot estimate how many discounted sales a book will generate because it’s based on a variety of factors and reader preferences. To ensure the best possible results, make sure you have an eye-catching and professional book cover, a clear and compelling book title, and an enticing book description that captures the interest of readers.

No, we only accept nonfiction books.

The Nonfiction Authors Association and Nonfiction Writers Conference hosts the Nonfiction Book Club. Since 2010, we have helped writers become successful authors. The book club is born from a mission to help connect nonfiction writers with readers.

We cannot guarantee results since readers have their own tastes and preferences, and therefor we do not offer refunds. However, we expect all books to receive a minimum of 30 downloads, and many will generate hundreds of downloads from a single campaign.

To ensure the best possible results, make sure you have an eye-catching and professional book cover, along with an enticing book description that captures the interest of readers. If we believe your book may not generate enough interest, we will cancel the promotional campaign and issue a full refund within five business days.
